sam06pr Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 A little after six I saw a bunch of supervisors running towards congo. After I heard what happen I dropped my pan and broom and decided to go help clear out Jungala. Anyways, no big deal, but the media made sure it was a big deal!

sam06pr Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 It actually ate a chicken finger. LOL. It was looking a way back to its habitat. They gave her ice cream and some treats to lure her in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Upsidedown Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Update on the Oragutang exhibit. It is currently closed and under repair. It looks like the animal climbed the back wall of its enclosure to escape. They are now in the process of smoothing out the wall so that it has no places for the animals to get a grip and climb out. Looks like the exhibit is getting close to being reopened. They have most of the wall restuccod and were doing some finalized painting on some of the wall. More photos here www.johnnyupsidedown.com/basic.html Couple of photos below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam06pr Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 I am not liking those wall...oh well I thought the wall was not the way the orangutan escaped...I'm confused now. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Upsidedown Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I dont know how they got out, I just figured that was the way that they did becuase of the way that they are smoothing the walls out. Otherwise didnt make any sense that they would go through all that work to flatten the walls. At first I thought they were making the wall taller but a closer look at the photos it appears they are just smoothing the walls. SAM ask around at your job and see if they will tell you how the animals got out. Just a guess on my part but seemed logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
